Awards & Achievements

2005 - ASM Fellow "For outstanding contributions to the field of Surface Engineering and Tribological Behavior of Materials."

Fellow of the Indian National Academy of Engineering (INAE)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Composite material
  • Metallurgy
  • Aluminium

His primary areas of investigation include Metallurgy, Composite material, Microstructure, Coating and Indentation hardness. His study in Aluminium, Alloy, Boride, Boriding and Copper falls under the purview of Metallurgy. His Polymer, Composite number, Shear and Deformation study in the realm of Composite material interacts with subjects such as Solid particle erosion.

His Microstructure research incorporates themes from Laser, Scanning electron microscope and Surface coating. His study connects Tribology and Coating. In his research on the topic of Surface roughness, Abrasion is strongly related with Ceramic.

His most cited work include:

  • Mechanisms underlying the formation of thick alumina coatings through the MAO coating technology (401 citations)
  • Correlation between the characteristics of the mechanically mixed layer and wear behaviour of aluminium, Al-7075 alloy and Al-MMCs (257 citations)
  • The tribological performance of ultra-hard ceramic composite coatings obtained through microarc oxidation (203 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Metallurgy, Composite material, Coating, Microstructure and Indentation hardness are his primary areas of study. His study in Alloy, Corrosion, Copper, Aluminium and Residual stress are all subfields of Metallurgy. His work in Ceramic, Porosity, Indentation, Deformation and Elastic modulus is related to Composite material.

His Ceramic research includes elements of Sintering and Fracture toughness. In the subject of general Coating, his work in Thermal spraying is often linked to Detonation, thereby combining diverse domains of study. His Microstructure research incorporates elements of Boriding, Boride, Oxide and Scanning electron microscope.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Metallurgy (54.63%)
  • Composite material (36.59%)
  • Coating (29.27%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Metallurgy (54.63%)
  • Microstructure (21.46%)
  • Composite material (36.59%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary scientific interests are in Metallurgy, Microstructure, Composite material, Coating and Corrosion. Govindan Sundararajan regularly links together related areas like Nanocrystalline material in his Metallurgy studies. His Microstructure research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Crystallite, Sintering, Silicon carbide, Machining and Yield.

He has researched Composite material in several fields, including Transmission electron microscopy, Solid solution and Graphene. His Coating study combines topics in areas such as Tribology, Plasma electrolytic oxidation, Nanoindentation and Elastic modulus. His Modulus research integrates issues from Porosity, Indentation hardness and Abrasive.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A New Electrochemical Approach for the Synthesis of Copper-Graphene Nanocomposite Foils with High Hardness (149 citations)
  • Preparation and Characterization of Ni-Doped TiO2 Materials for Photocurrent and Photocatalytic Applications (118 citations)
  • Preparation and characterization of Cu-doped TiO2 materials for electrochemical, photoelectrochemical, and photocatalytic applications (98 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Composite material
  • Aluminium
  • Metallurgy

Govindan Sundararajan mainly focuses on Metallurgy, Coating, Photocatalysis, Alloy and Corrosion. Govindan Sundararajan combines subjects such as Elemental analysis and Gas dynamic cold spray with his study of Metallurgy. His Coating research is under the purview of Composite material.

His Composite material study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Solid solution, Tungsten and High-resolution transmission electron microscopy. His work deals with themes such as Photocurrent, Band gap and Nuclear chemistry, which intersect with Photocatalysis. His study in Corrosion is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Silicon carbide and Microstructure.
